These are great! Really, more like 4.5 stars...I had to guess what temp to cook them at--I used 350 degrees. Also a few more modifications: I used chopped hazelnuts instead of pecans, subbed half of the sugar with Splenda, and dropped by tablespoons onto cookie sheet. These are zippy and good--even with out the icing (I snuck a few before I iced them). THANKS!

Just made these, S'kat, and they are WONDERFUL! Moist, tangy, sweet, interesting little cookies! DH, who really only likes molasses cookies or oatmeal cookies, loved these. They are adorable, too. Will definitely include these in my Christmas cookie packages!

These are really great if you like tangy and sweet together. They are simple to make, too. I followed the recipe as written EXCEPT I added more lemon zest and I even added a little lemon juice to the icing. The cookies came out perfectly. Thanks!!
